Chapter 99 Why not ask
Shangguan Li didn't tell the reason, and Xuanyuan Ye stopped asking.
The two of them stayed quietly for a while, and there was only the collision sound of Chen Baiyu occasionally fiddling with the bottles and jars in the room.
"Xuanyuan Ye."
Shangguan Li suddenly called him,
"Um?"
“…”
Shangguan Li opened her mouth but didn't say anything.
What she wanted to ask was about the firewood picking club. Since she said these three words from him, she felt that Xuanyuan Ye seemed to be a little different.
To be specific, it may be just some unreliable intuition.
But Shangguan Li just couldn't ignore this feeling.
If you want to ask the reason, it is probably because Xuanyuan Ye looks too perfect and seems to have no flaws.
When she encountered such a situation that seemed to be something wrong with him, she couldn't help but be curious. What if she grabbed his handle, wouldn't that be a good thing?
But she also knew very well that with her own strength to guess or check, the result would definitely be in vain, so she wanted to ask directly.
"The princess has anything to ask, just say it, Ye naturally knows everything."
Seeing that she didn't speak, Xuanyuan Ye asked again.
Shangguan Li shook his head.
"Forget it, I'll ask again if I have the chance in the future."
She didn't know why, so she didn't ask.
Maybe she instinctively felt that this problem was a bit dangerous, or maybe it was some other reasons, but she didn't quite understand it now.
Xuanyuan Ye's eyes were turbulent for a moment, and then they returned to peace and said nothing.
The sky outside the window became dim and Shangguan Li stood up. Before going to the firewood collection meeting, she had to go back to the prime minister's mansion and make some preparations.
“Where did you meet?”
"No need, Ye will go to find the princess at that time."
Xuanyuan Ye did not get up, but just glanced at her and said leisurely.
Come find it yourself?
Could it be that this legendary general also learned to climb walls?
Shangguan Li thought with some bad taste, but since he said that, there was no need to think about him, so he nodded and left the room.
After she left, Xuanyuan Ye seemed to have turned into a stone sculpture without temperature. He sat there for a long time.
Suddenly, the tea cup at hand moved and some cold tea water spilled out.
As if he was attracted by this little movement, Xuanyuan Ye finally moved.
He stretched out his fingers and slowly wrote words on the low table with the water. After a while, with the afterglow of the sunset leaking in, he saw the three words "Shangguan Li" under his fingertips.
The orange-red sunshine was nearly bloody and stained his body one inch, and the shadow fell down, covering his eyes.
After a while, it was even colder than usual, but with a hint of doubt, it sounded.
"What is this?"
He could guess the reason why Shangguan Li wanted to speak but stopped. The fact that picking up firewood did have a different meaning for him. Shangguan Li was enough to detect his slight strangeness.
Later, she obviously wanted to ask about the firewood collection club, but changed her words, which really made him unable to understand.
From his perspective, Shangguan Li had no reason not to ask, because she was such a smart and bold enough woman.
After a moment of silence, he waved his palm, wiped away the handwriting on the low table, and then stood up and left Thirteen Xiang.
As for Chen Baiyu, as long as he doesn't go out for more than two hours, the shopkeeper will know what the situation is and he doesn't need to worry about it.
Shangguan Li returned to Luyuan and originally wanted to ask Shangguan Bu for advice, but after all, she didn't know how long it took to come back.
But I didn't see anyone else.
"San, Miss San, the eldest son should still be in the shop now."
Seeing Shangguan Li asking, Zhang Lei, who was weeding around the Luyuan, quickly put down his work and replied.
"The eldest son has been busy until late these days and has only come back late at night."
"That's how it is."
Shangguan Li really didn't expect that it seemed that he had fought hard to go to the Western Region.
"Okay, then he will come back then. Please tell me that the matter has been agreed upon, as long as he can grow from an ant to a cockroach."
Zhang Lei heard what she meant.
"Miss Three wants to go out?"
"Yes, I'll leave tonight, it may take ten days and a half months to go. I'll ask you to take care of Luyuan during this period."
Zhang Lei didn't ask much. For him, he just had to listen to Guan Li's instructions, so he nodded immediately.
"Three, Miss Three don't worry!"
Shangguan Li looked at him suddenly nervous and felt a little funny.
"No need to face a great enemy like this. Nothing should happen in the mansion now."
Zhang Yuanniang will not take any action for the time being, as for Shangguan Xun...
The government affairs at the end of the year should be enough for him to be busy.
Seeing Zhang Lei nodding, Shangguan Li patted his shoulder and went back to the room by himself.
Instead of staying in the room for a long time, she jumped out of the window facing the back mountain and walked through the path with fallen leaves. She came to a dead tree half hidden in the weeds.
This dead tree is very big, and it is estimated that two people can hold it together. At the bottom of the weed, there is a hidden tree hole.
According to her world, this place should be called a secret base. The owner of the base is the original body and Shangguan Yan when he was a child.
At that time, when it was thunder and rain, the two of them would run into the cave to chat. Most of the time, Shangguan Yan would tell the original body the story of the saint told the Master.
Shangguan Yan didn't like it, but was not allowed to go to school but listened with relish.
This is why, in the case where everyone doesn't like her, the original body's belly can still contain a little bit of ink.
Although this ink was finally used as a weapon to praise the original body.
Shangguan Li smiled and bent down and pulled out a package from the depths of the tree hole.
This is the bag she carried when she came to the prime minister's mansion.
Before, she dug a pit near Lingshui Pavilion and buried it. Then, when Lingshui Pavilion caught fire, she dug it out and hid it in another place to hide it.
It contains her baby, various hidden weapons, poisons, and some bandages and medicines for first aid.
I will go to Jiangnan after going to see the dumpling tomorrow. There will definitely be some twists and turns at that time. It is better to bring what I should have.
Shangguan Li patted off the soil on it and took the bag back to the room.
It was almost dark. According to her experience, black market events are usually chosen in the second half of the night, so she is not in a hurry.
I first went to the dining room for dinner with my bag and brought a serving to Zhang Lei, who was still working hard to weed.
With Zhang Lei's grateful eyes, she wandered back to the room and wanted to count the things she could use.
I don't know if I don't look at it, I'm shocked when I see it.
She discovered a very serious problem.
The medicine she made in Jingtang in the past few months has almost been used up, but now she only has some emergency left in her bag.
